Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
10 whole heads of garlic
1/2 cup olive oil -- approximate
sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons Aleppo crushed red pepper -- or red pepper flakes
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Cut about 3/4-inch off the top of each garlic head and pour about a
teaspoon of olive oil over the exposed flesh. Season with a little sea
salt, then wrap 2 or 3 heads together in aluminum foil. Bake in the oven
for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until very soft.
Let cool a little, then open the foil and squeeze the garlic cloves from
their husks into a small bowl. Add the red pepper, stir well to mix, and
transfer to a jar, pressing well so that no air pockets are formed. Top
with olive oil and seal with the lid.
This will keep for 2 to 3 months in the refrigerator.
Makes 1 1/2 cups (24 one-tablespoon servings)
AuthorNote: whole heads of garlic roasted with [Favorite] are common in
recipe from Italy and the South of France. The garlic - which tuns into a
fragrant paste when roasted - is spread over the hot [Favorite], giving it
a great taste. But because garlic needs at least an hour to cook, it is
much more convenient to keep garlic paste on hand in the refrigerator than
to prepare it from scratch each time you want to use it.
Use this paste in sauces, salads, and marinades for [Favorites]. You can
also make garlic-pepper olive oil by adding 1 tablespoon of garlic paste
per cup of extra virgin olive oil. Let stand for two to three days,
shaking occasionally before using.
